Full details
The MagMod MagBox PRO 36 Strip Grid is designed for photographers seeking to refine their soft light output by controlling light spill and enhancing contrast. It's ideal for wedding, product, portrait, and fashion photography when used with the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox.

FAQs
What softbox is this grid designed for?
This grid is specifically designed for the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox.
How does the grid attach?
The grid features a magnetic mounting system that quickly and securely attaches to the front of the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox.
Can I use this grid with other MagMod products?
The grid is designed for the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox. While MagMod products often integrate, this specific grid's attachment mechanism is unique to the Pro 36 Strip softbox.
What is the primary benefit of using this grid?
The primary benefit is superior control over light spill, allowing for more focused light, enhanced contrast, and precise light placement in your images.
What material is the grid made of?
The grid is constructed from durable nylon.
How does the magnetic attachment compare to traditional methods?
The magnetic attachment is much faster, quieter (no Velcro), and simpler than traditional methods involving clips or tape, making setup and breakdown more efficient.
Will this grid significantly soften the light?
While it controls the direction of the light, it will slightly reduce the overall softness compared to using the softbox without a grid. However, it maintains the desirable soft quality of the MagBox light.
Troubleshooting
Grid does not attach securely.
Ensure the magnets on the grid are clean and free from debris. Verify that you are using the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox, as the grid is only compatible with this specific model.
Light spill is still present.
Check that the grid is fully seated on the softbox and that there are no gaps. For maximum light control, ensure the softbox is positioned as intended and that ambient light sources are managed.
Grid appears misshapen.
Gently lay the grid flat for a period or loosely roll it in the opposite direction of the bend. Avoid storing it under heavy objects.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The MagBox PRO 36 Strip Grid attaches directly to the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox via its integrated magnetic edge. Simply align the grid with the front of the softbox, and the magnets will securely snap it into place. Removal is just as straightforward – gently pull the grid away from the softbox.
Compatibility: This grid is specifically designed for the MagBox Pro 36” Strip softbox. It is not compatible with other MagBox models or softboxes from different brands.
Care: To clean the grid, use a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the nylon material and the reflective interior. Store the grid flat or rolled loosely in a dry place to maintain its shape and prevent damage.
